About

This

Antiquarian

Book

This LONG OUT OF PRINT Antiquarian catalogue lists and describes 206 Lots, of an amazing selection of Antique Jewelry from Classical Archaeological Areas !

Included are -- finger rings, animal figures and scaraboids, amulets, earrings, pendants, fibulas, pins, cameos, broaches, scarabs, necklaces, seals, spacers, beads -- made of -- bronze, GOLD, silver, amethyst, carnelian, agate, chalcedny, amber, rock crystal, among MANY others!

Cultures / Countries of origin include -- Egyptian, Bactrian, Greek, Graeco-Persian, Etruscan, Scythian, Roman, Byzantine, Phoenician, and MORE!

WOWSERS! What an awesome reference on ancient jewelry, personal adornments, amulets and related artifacts, some dating back more than 3000+ years!!

When I was a kid, I would have many file folders according to subject, filled with pics and clippings in them of many of these things -- now days, without being a geeky genius, one can do the same thing, way better, on a computer!

If you have already begun your own personal computer interactive relational database of these highly artistic and creative artifacts of the past, you will most certainly find MANY new items to add to it in this reference, both in fine photos and descriptive details -- as well as their values, which is very important when you might find a treasure at that local country / estate auction or yard sale / flea market -- it does happen!

Extensive Bibliography.

Lavishly illustrated !
